Description:

Young Life has operated in Tuscarawas and Holmes Counties for more than three decades. In an effort to rebuild and bolster existing ministry, we are looking for a leader and team player who is gifted in the recruitment and development of volunteer teams — both leaders working directly with kids and committee members involved behind the scenes. The candidate must place her or his relationship with Jesus as most important and have a growing spiritual life outside of the ministry.

This is a wonderful opportunity to help write the next chapter of the 30-year story God has been writing in this area, building a solid team that will help ensure many more years of ministry to kids in small town Ohio.

Responsibilities:

Spiritual/Personal Development

• Live as a leader who relies on prayer and spiritual disciplines for the sake of his or her own relationship with Jesus and the area’s ministry.
• Connect and participate with a healthy Christ-centered, local church body.
• Invite mentors and accountability relationships as part of your personal walk with Jesus.

Leadership Development

• Work alongside the area director to cast vision, supervise and equip your team members.
• Recruit, train and deploy volunteer leaders, committee members and others, as well as lead team members to accomplish ministry goals.

Resource Development

• Recognize needs within the area, create a plan and gather the resources (team members, finances, etc.) to meet those needs.
• Build trusting and professional relationships with adults in the community including donors, parents and adult leaders. Be willing to appropriately solicit their support.
• Raise personal financial support for a portion of the salary.

Qualifications:

• Loves Jesus and has a desire for Kingdom growth.
• Gifted as a team builder.
• A teachable spirit willing to learn and grow.
• Good communicator.
